“But I don’t have an invitation.”
Jessica hesitated for a moment. “The invitations for this auction were sent ouffalf a month ago. It’s not easy to get
one now, but if you want…”
Her meaning was clear.
She was suggesting that Freya ask Matteo for help.
Around 9 p.m., after parting with Jessica, Freya finally returned to Matteo’s villa.
When she arrived, she found that Matteo was already home, working in the study.
Freya knew he didn’t like her getting close to his study, so she stayed in the bedroom, reading a book while waiting for him.
Around 1 a.m., Matteo finally returned to the room.
Seeing him enter, Freya put down her book and looked at him. Matteo noticed her gaze and calmly asked, “Is there something?”
Freya didn’t beat around the bush and directly said, “I heard there’s a charity auction in two days-”
Matteo elegantly took off his tie and, hearing her, glanced at her and said, “You want an invitation to the auction?”
“Yes,” Freya replied.
“Got it.”
He said that and turned to head to the closet. A short while later, he went to the bathroom to shower.
Freya was a little surprised by how readily he agreed.
But since he had agreed, she was reassured.
It was getting late, so she put down her book and lay down in bed. Matteo was still in the bathroom, and she quickly fell asleep.
Because the auction was in two days, the following evening, after leaving Cole, Freya still returned to the villa.
When she got there, Matteo was not at home, but Isabella was.
When Isabella saw her, she clung to her and begged her to make her something delicious.

Freya agreed.
After dinner, the butler came to find her, saying, “Madam, someone just dropped this off for you.
Freya opened the package.
It was the invitation to the charity auction the next day.
Matteo had indeed gotten it for her.
And there were two invitations.
However, since he had sent them over, did it mean he wouldn’t be coming home tonight?
Freya was just thinking this when her phone buzzed twice.
Jessica had sent two messages.
Freya opened them and froze for a moment.
It was a screenshot from Raven’s posts.
The screenshot showed a photo of Raven’s sweet smiling profile against the backdrop of a spectacular fireworks display, with the caption: “The fireworks festival tonight was beautiful.”
In the photo, there were indeed several couples in the background.
It was clear that the fireworks festival, as Raven described it, was a perfect date spot for couples.
The beauty of the fireworks was evident, but even more apparent was Raven’s joyful expression. She was smiling sweetly because she was with Matteo.
Matteo hadn’t come back because he was out on a date with Raven, and he hadn’t even brought Matteo.
